[U-Boot] [PATCH] ppc: Unlock cache-as-ram in a consistent manner

Previously, non-e500 architectures only unlocked their data cache which
was used as early RAM when booting to Linux using the "bootm" command.
This change causes all PPC boards with CONFIG_SYS_INIT_RAM_LOCK defined
to unlock their data cache during U-Boot's initialization. This
improves U-Boot performance and provides a common cache state when
booting to different OSes.

I've tested this on 86xx boards, it'd be great if someone could test on
83xx and 74xx/7xx. 85xx boards should not be affected by this change.
This change assumes http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/63423
has already been applied, or the lib/ppc patches in the diffs below can
be changed to lib_ppc.
